Description He may look cute, but beware his tail. (laughs)

I think the right wing's positioned a little too low though. (shrugs) Otherwise, I'm really happy with his outcome.

Lineart! Lineart!
You're welcome to colour him, as long as you give credit. (grins)

Time Taken

Unfortunately, I readily admit that I'm not the best person when it come to colouring. (laughs) You're welcome to do so, though.

hahaha, did you SEE my page?? Not only do i admit im not the best but continuously rant about how i hate my computer and that its not MY fault that that shading looks like a gaping hole/cliff edge/sick mongoose but the manifesting AI of the remnants of my battered hard drive conspiring against me....*breathes*.. sorry about that ^_^ still, very nice work ^^

(laughs) Yeah. I SAW your page. And your art's really good. I don't know why you complain about it. I can't draw humans for shit. (shrugs) It bothers me sometimes, and my friends encourage me to try nonetheless, but I know I'm just crap with real humans. I can't even do anime right. (raises a brow) I'm barely passing on chibi, though I admit shamelessly that I love my picture of Reko I drew for my theme 'innocence'. Sadly, I haven't posted it up because I've not done the works before that theme. (laughs) I'm an organizing bitch in my art. Otherwise, I'm as bad as the next person when it comes to stuff like this. Enough ranting about me.

Your work is great. Really. Don't put yourself down, though I'm a hypocrite for saying that. Still, they do say that the artist's worst critique comes from himself.

Why, thank you! (mock bows and laughs) Very true, I am more comfortable with drawing animals. It's probably the head. And yeah, proportioning comes into a bit of a trouble sometimes. I believe I have most trouble when I try to do a different perspective with a different pose (say looking from above/below). Yeah, they are stiff, aren't they? Maybe I should stop giving them starched water baths. (snickers)

You sound like you're lecturing? I sounded like I was giving a speech!

Chibis are more about disproportioning than anything. The basic structure, I believe, is a big head, big eyes with a fittingly small body and limbs. And all around cute. (laughs) Look at 's works. She does quite a lot of chibi. You're right about having fun too. That's what art's about. Having fun as you ride the drive of your passion.

Too kind ^_^ and i agree, you're a total hypocrite You're amazing at animals, you seem a lot more comfortable drawing them. As for people i think you have the proportions PERFECT which believe you me is the most difficult part! But i'll admit they do look a bit stiff. Just put the same confidence into drawing people as you do animals and you'll be hailed as DA queen in no time ^^

god i sound like im lecturing, yuk >.<

And for the life of me i cant draw chibis ^^ i did try a couple of times... then they burst into flames O.o something about 'artistic license to self-destruct'. but hey, i still drew them coz i found it fun, thats what its all about ey?
